While looking for objects to make a cheap flash bounce for he onboard flash of my D60 I came up with this idea for a diffuser.

I used the plastic container of some Crystal light and placed it over the onboard flash.

here is a shot with OUT it using my 19-35mm Tokina lens


here is a shot with the crystal light container on the flash.


as you can see the colors look more natural and there is more flash coverage. No editing was done other than resizing them down.

I tried it on a subject futher away and in a bigger room and it did not work as well.

I still have some work to do on getting it to fit on the camera with out me having to hold it.
